Import Tips
• Document weave type (twill) and ensure it doesn't qualify as sheeting or printcloth per statistical notes
• Weigh multiple samples to confirm >170 g/m² average, avoiding reclassification to lighter subheadings
• For upholstery end-use, note retail packaging but classification based on fabric specs
